It had taken Eva quite awhile to finally find the place. It wasn't as if it was hard to miss, but true to Eva's style, she had taken a wrong turn and ended up somewhere she hadn't particularly wanted to go. It had taken her almost an extra two hours to backtrack and find the ruins. When she did, she was met by a very creepy man who had oogled and awwed at her and her Pokémon team. As he went over the rules of the ruins Eva felt a crawling sensation as his eyes kept peeking over his little note card.
Choosing the one Pokémon Eva could take was difficult. It ended up being a choice between Venonat and Buizel. She had consulted Venonat first, asking what Venonat thought. As per usual he said very little. She explained why she wanted to use Buizel, simply because the water Pokémon still resented being captured. Eva tried to explain that maybe some "bonding" time together would help. It would be hard work, digging around and such, and the Pokémon was ever so boyish. Perhaps it would be a good chance to try and form some sort of connection. In the end Venonat had simply chirped a reply and hopped back into his pokeball, making his thoughts on the matter clear. Or, somewhat clear.
Only one Pokémon being allowed was sort of odd. Even odder was not being able to go alone. Eva was about to leave the ruins when she saw another girl standing by the entrance. It didn't seem like she was with anyone. Without a moment's hesitation she ran towards her, "Hey, do you have someone to go in with? If not, I'll go with you, I'm sort of alone. You have a Pansear? That's pretty awesome, I'm going to try and use my Buizel. Hopefully she won't give me too hard of a time."

The stranger appeared to be close to Leila's age, and seemed friendly enough.
"Yeah, I'm looking for someone to go in with," she replied. "I'm Leila, and this is Darrell." She gestured toward the Pansear perched on her shoulder, who raised a paw to wave at Eva. "So I guess we just...go in here, then?"
Leila took a few tentative steps into the crevice, looking around the area curiously. She had definitely never been anywhere like this before. Where should they even start? Supposedly there were treasures to be found in here, but all Leila could see in the dim light were rocks. Lots of rocks.
The girl turned to her mining partner. "So...I have no idea how to do this. Any suggestions on how we should start?"

"Hello Leila and Darrell." Eva said cheerily with a little wave, "I am Eva and this is Buizel--" Eva continued, letting the water pokemon out of her ball with a flash. Buizel blinked, taking in the surroundings. It's eyes fell on Eva and the pokemon began to look rather cross, snorting slightly and crossing her arms. "She's not too fond of me." Eva explained to Leila.
When the other girl stepped forward, so did Eva. She looked into the cave and shrugged. "I'm assuming we simply go inside. After that I couldn't tell you. I wasn't given a shovel, nor did I think of bringing one so I guess we use our pokemon to help us mine whatever is in there." Eva reasoned.
Looking towards her Buizel who had her back turned stubbornly, Eva sighed. "Hey Buizel, give me a chance... I brought you here so you can sonic boom another hole. Sound like fun? I bet the two of us can get pretty messy if we tried." Eva said, trying to sound more excited at the idea of making a mess than she really was.
"She wasn't too keen on being captured." Eva explained to Leila. "Still isn't fond of the idea." As if to approve the statement, the Buizel let out a loud snort. She then turned around and headed inside the tunnel. "Hey wait up Buizel, you have to wait for me!" Eva cried angrily, walking hastily towards her wayward pokemon. She stopped just before she entered the tunnel and turned towards Leila, "You coming?"

She turned her head briefly when the Buizel came out, noting the apparent bad relationship between Pokemon and Trainer. That was rather unfortunate. Leila would hate to have a Pokemon that didn't like her.
The Buizel seemed to be quite headstrong, as she promptly ran forward into the cave as soon as she was released from her Pokeball. Eva went in after her and Leila soon followed.
The walls were lit with dimly-burning torches, and as the two trainers progressed through the mine Leila observed the walls for anything interesting that the flames might show. Darrell wasn't particularly cut out for breaking rocks--then again, none of her Pokemon really were.
"Hey, wait for a sec," Leila said, stopping in her tracks. "The wall looks different there. It's softer, more dirt than rock. Think you can break through it, Darrell?"
The Pansear nodded, hopping down from his trainer's shoulder and moving toward the indicated spot. He dug and scratched fiercely with his claws, and sure enough the tightly-packed dirt soon gave way, revealing another smaller corridor.
"Whoa," Leila remarked, peering inside the new, unlit room. "What do you think's in there?"

Eva wasn't really surprised Leila was the first one to find something in the tunnel. After all, Vuizel had headed in and stood there, looking overly bored at everything around her. When she heard the crumbling of the wall, the Buizel bothered to look towards the sound. Perhaps the chance at running and causing mayhem for Eva, or the chance to blast a hole into the earth... Whatever it was, was too much for the Buizel to continue her stance and she scampered into the hole.
"Goddamnit." Eva cursed under her breathe, shooting a look at Leila she apologized, "Sorry, pardon my language, bringing her out was a bad idea." And with that, there was a loud boom. Eva peered into where the walls had crumbled at her Buizel, who was using her sonic boom to create massive craters in the walls.
"Oh god!" Eva cried, dashing into the hole and ignoring her own safety. She quickly grabbed up her pokemon and held it against her chest. Buizel struggled, flailing arms and legs but it did stop using it's attacks. "You don't do that, you'll collapse the whole thing around us. Silly girl."

The newer room was a bit darker; this made Leila both intrigued and a little bit scared. She didn't know what kinds of things could be here, and that could be both good or bad.
Just as she was about to take a step into the corridor, Eva's Buizel suddenly went rushing past. Leila could tell from the sounds that followed that the water-type was up to no good. Her trainer soon went in after her and caught the renegade Pokemon in her arms, keeping it from doing any more harm.
Thinking quickly, Leila snatched one of the torches from the wall and brought it with her into the smaller room, to give them a bit of light. The flame illuminated Eva and her Buizel, and Leila could see that the Pokemon was not happy at all. "So what exactly is the story with your Buizel, anyway?" Leila asked. "Why does she hate you so much?"
Darrell, meanwhile, had wandered off a little ways, scouting the walls for anything interesting--but not going too far because he was still noticeably terrified.

Once Buizel stopped flailing completely Eva let her down. "Now go dig somewhere, if you do anything silly again I swear.... I'll keep you in your ball forever." Eva threatened, but it was obvious she didn't mean it.
Eva turned to shrug apologetically at her digging partner. "There isn't even much of a story to tell. Was walking in the snow, came across her in this giant puddle of dirt. More like a crater of mud in the dirt. We tried to walk around but she attacked my Venonat. I won of course, and the I caught her. She wasn't quite fond of that." Eva replied. "Any cool story with you and Darrell?"
At that point there was a loud thud. Eva looked scared to turn around, but she did. She found her Buizel having lifted a large boulder out of the way and had thrown it a few feet to the side. She was now digging quickly at a softer spot in the floor. "Find anything interesting?" Eva called over. Buizel replied with a quick snort. "Guess she didn't."

It was interesting to hear Eva's story; Leila'd had her own experiences with encountering Pokemon but she never really stopped to think about what kinds of things happened to the other trainers that were walking the same route as she was. "Uh, not really," she replied in response to Eva's question. "I met him at the Ranger Station. Some weirdo there kept trying to hit on me. I'm still wondering if he was even a real ranger or not." At the thought, Leila rolled her eyes.
Meanwhile, Darrell had wandered over to where Buizel was looking around. "H-hey, Buizel," he said nervously, starting a conversation with the water-type. "Maybe if we work together we can find more stuff...what do you think?"
Leila's gaze shifted to the two Pokemon, ready to interfere if Buizel didn't take kindly to the Pansear's offer. She knew that Darrell was just trying to be friendly, but also knew that he was a fire-type and the other was a water-type, and that could potentially end badly.

Eva was ever so slightly amused when Leila had no story behind catching her pokemon. It seemed as if none of her pokemon had come easy, even her first pokemon had been knocked out by some crazy legendary pokemon then swept up by a crazy Jynx. Poor Venonat, hell, poor all her pokemon. At least Eva would provide for them, whatever she could.
"Mm, I suppose you're lucky in the aspect. Didn't have to wrestle the guy into a pokeball, eh? I ended up getting some weird ranger. I think him and his Jynx were cross dressers or something, crazy it was. Aw, look at that, I think Buizel is trying to play nice." Eva said, watching her pokemon look relaxed as the Pansear walked up to her.
Buizel was a bit surprised at the Pansear's offer to team up. She wasn't quite the nicest girl out there and it usually drew other pokemon away when they saw her doing her own thing. <"You want to help me?"> She asked a bit confused, <"Well um... Darrel right? I can't refuse an offer to help. The more we find, the more our trainers can spoil us. That's what they do right?">
The water pokemon had stopped digging and scooted over a bit so Darrel could help her continue trying get into the harden dirt. Eva smiled, not wanting to see miss the site of her usually antisocial pokemon actually working with someone else.

Darrell was thankful that the Buizel seemed somewhat friendly, at least to him. He had almost expected to get blasted with a Water Gun in the face. "Spoil us?" |
[/color] he asked, looking back at Leila briefly. "Well, I-I guess..."[/color] To be honest, the fire monkey had no real interest in being "spoiled". He considered himself just lucky to be with Leila and not still living among vicious wild Pokemon somewhere. The Pansear moved over next to Buizel and began scratching at the dirt the water-type had been focusing on. "Aww," said Leila quietly so that the two Pokemon couldn't hear. "That's cute, look at 'em. They are in the same egg group, you know!" She laughed, causing Darrell to turn around. He hadn't heard anything, but tilted his head to the side and looked at his trainer, confused. She waved a hand at him to signal that he should go back to digging, and she shrugged and decided to do so.
